For over a decade, I’ve led the fight to protect Bristol Bay from immense damages from the proposed Pebble Mine.
Now, I’m proud to announce that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will establish critical protections for Bristol Bay and permanently block the Pebble Mine.
This is the final nail in the coffin for the Pebble Mine. The EPA’s decision to permanently protect Bristol Bay is the culmination of a hard fought battle, and I am proud to have stood with fishing families, communities, Tribes, and the whole Pacific Northwest Region to oppose the Pebble Mine for more than a decade.
I will always fight to protect threatened resources and industries in our region. We must continue our mission to preserve our invaluable natural resources for future generations to come.
